Subject:Re: InDesign as a FrameMaker substitute? From:Art Campbell <art -dot- campbell -at- gmail -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Tue, 16 Aug 2005 10:41:42 -0400
I think you're misremembering. InDesign was always promoted as a PageMaker
replacement, but I don't think anyone at Adobe has pushed it as a
Frame replacement
yet.
Although, like most other posters, I think it's going to be the code
base for either
the eventual FM replacement (or, dare I say it -- an upcoming version of FM).
